MUSCLE MEASURING.

THE INTERESTING SYSTEM IN VOGUE AT YALE COLLEGE.

By It Each Student's Weaknesses May be Ascortained—The Rule of the Institution and Its Kffects—Keeping the Physical Records of Students.

On moving into the new gymnasium on September, 1892, the requirement of Physical exercise for the freshmen was abolished and the work put on an op- tional basis, both as to exercise and ex- amination. This is now the case at ¥nle, except that the corporation voted atits June meeting in 1894 that it be rejuired that every man who presents himself for examination in the gymna- sigm, or who desires to use its privi- leges, shonld first submit to a physical examination by the medical director; or, in default of such an examination, sheuld bring from his physician a writ- ten certificate (the form to be furnished by the medical director) that he is physically sound, or a written certificate from his parent or guardian that he wishes the student excused from the examination and that he himself will take the responsibility of the conse- quences of exercise without a previous examination.

Under this rule about 60 per cent. of the men in the freshmen class are given a physical examination and a prescrip- tien of such exercises as seem to be most helpful in building up the weaker parts of the body. They are also warned against tuking exercises that would be hkely to be harmful, as jumping when the student has varicose veins, etc. All cases of abnormality have thus an op- portunity to receive care and special treatment by exercise without expense where this method is likely to prove efiicient. In other cases, as in errors of vision, the stndent is informed of his ab- uormnal condition, and, if the case be severe cnough to warrant, he is referred to a specialist or the family physician.

The data secured at this examination cover a wide field, and many of the ques- tions seem to certain men needlessly in- quisitorial, but all have a bearing on the present or future welfare of the indi- vidual, and in general they are answer- ed freely, as it is fully understood that all information of a personal nature is strictly confidential and will be used only for the good of the student.

The tabulation of this data has recety- ed some attention, and it will in the fu- ture receive still more. It shows us the influence that personal hygiene in pre- paratory schools has on the physical condition of the students. It shows us the type of the Yale student of to-day znd the changes he undergoes during the period of college life. It shows us the disabilities under which he works ov She advantages that he has, and, therefore, what may justly be expected of him. It often shows the direction in which he most needs help. It shows ome of the deteriorating influences on crowth and health, and it also shows us what exercise can do for bodily improyve- pelt ' A late development of this line of work is the use of a universal dynamometer invented by Dr. Kellogg. that can be used for showing the inuscular power exerted by any of the groups of skeletal rmiuscles, viz. : It shows not only the power of the flexor muscles of the hand, bnt also the strength of tne extensor muscles; it shows the power of rotating the hand into pronation or supination; it shows the strength of the four groups of muscles in the neck when acting singly; it shows the comparative strength of the two sides of the body, etc. The dynamometer tests not only the muscles, but the nerves and nerve centres as well, so that it is a precise measure of the condition of the indivi- dual’s motor apparatus. The tape-line merely gives the dimensions of a man; it tells nothing as to whether he is alive or dead. A dynamometer gives us an accurate picture of the living, active man.

Graphic methods are used to show comparative sizes, strengths, etc., the percentile method suggested by Francis Galton being employed in all the more recent tabulations.

‘The aim of this department at Yale is to turn out well developed, healthy men as the product of the university, and to stand between the students and physical disease so far as it can be done.—J. W. Seaver, in New York World.

mh ‘Modern Munchausen. _

Here is a story of a colonel who was much addicted to travelling, and who once reached home when the house was full of his son’s guests and stayed to dinner. One of the company, a notori- ous drawer of the long bow, told a story of his being off the Cape of Good Hope, in an Indiaman, when a floating object was discovered which proved to be a cask, whereupon & man was seated clinging to asmall staff in the bung- hole.

‘*Come on board ?” retorted the ocean j waif when hailed. ‘No, thank you. } I'm very comfortable here. I’m bound for the Cape. Can I take letters there | for you? Don’t bother about me. I’m j all right.”

Then, amid the silence which follow- #0 this incredible yarn, Colonel @—— j arese and gravely addressed the nar- | rator:

“Sir.” he said, ‘for years I have been trying to find anyone belonging to that ship to return thanks for the great courtesy shown to me on that occasion. At last Iam enabled to do so, sir—I was the man on the cask.” —Tit- Bits,

THE ALASASTER

INDUSTRY. It Has Flotirished in Italian Caves Since } the Days of the Ancients, Thirty-two miles to the south-east of

| Pisa, in the prevince of that name, a | Very remarkable and very ancient in- ' dustry is ca.ried on. We refer to the alabaster industry, of which a full de- scription from actual observation is given by Vice Consnl Carmichael, of Leghorn, in a Foreign Office report just issued. Volterra, where the alabaster is found, enjoys special distinction among places in the world which pro- duce that commodity. The material, which is of five main varieties, is found in nodules, embedded in huge masses of limestone. At the end of each cavern whence it is extracted two or three men are to be seen working away with small T-shaped picks by the dim light of unprotected oil lamps of Etruscan pattern, which, by a singular tenacity of tradition, are still in use in the dis- trict. In one case the biock of alabas- ter will be already well projecting from its bed of limestone. and the operator is carefully picking away all around it, in order to extricate the complete block. The larger the specimen the more valu- able it is in proportion to its weight. In ancther, search is still being made for the alabaster, and the workman is vigorously beating down the wall of limestone until he lights upon the white nose of what looks like a block. He then picks away carefully, so as not to injure the prize. When there seems a likelihood of a large quantity of lime- stone having to be removed, blasting with gunpowder is resorted to.

The alabaster industry dates back to elassic times. Great changes have taken place in it, however, within living memory. In former days there were three distinct classes of workmen engaged in the work of fashioning the raw material—the master artist, who owned a workshop and employed numerous workers, selling his products direct to the alabaster shops or * galler ies ;” the journeymen, and the travellers, men who took huge cases of the goods and sold them as they went along, in all the countries of the world, civilized and uncivilized. Of these, two, the masterworker and the traveller, are extinct species. Nowadays three men, usually relatives, work together in in- formal parinership, one being a turner, another a modeller and the third a decorator, who carves such decorative adjuncts on the finished articles as fruit and flowers. Their gains are very small, and, indeed, travellers who put in at the port of Leghorn and have ala- baster vases, statuary and the like offered at almost absurdly low prices, refuse, as a rule, to believe that they can be made by hand.

One kind of alabaster is made by a process of dyeing, which is still a trade secret, into an excellent imitation of coral. Fora time this had a very large sale, but the trade is now threatened with extinction. It is suggested that the people of the East, who used to buy it largely, left off doing so as they were doubtful whether the sham article could properly be used in the religious rites wherein coral plays a part. The alabaster workers have true artistic characteristics, but in their desire to turn out what they think will sel) they neglect the fine models that are to be found in such profusion in the churches of Italy, and flood the market with eternal reproductions of a limited num- ber of classical figures and with flashy modern dancing girls, coquettish diving girls, faultlessly clad pifferari and impossibly spruce lazzaroni.—London Daily News.

Jealous of a Stage Lover.

Too much zeal in the discharge of his stage duties has led a jeune premier at a Paris preparatory theatre into a dis- agreeable, not to say painful adventure. The young actor was acting with a lady of his own age in a new piece, and had to make a declaration of love. He held the mirror up to nature so well in the matter that the young lady’s in- tended husband, who was looking on from the stalls, flew into a towering passion and thirsted for blood. When the performance was over the man possessed by the green-eyed monster waited at the stage door for the jeune premier and whacked vigorously at the actor’s face with his cane. The player —bruised, bleeding and tearful—did not make any effort to return blow for blow, but, holding up a manuscript which contained his part in the play, remarked to his aggressor that he had done no more than follow the instruc- tions of the author of the little love comedy in which he had acted with the beautiful young lady. The affair ended there.—London Telegraph.

An African Chief's Umbrella,

Visitors to the Nelson Bazaar and Ex- hibition lately had an opportunity of examining ‘‘Alamma’s Umbrella,’ which was the centre of much attraction. It is a gigantic sunshade, the nine sections of which are made of silk, each of a dif- ferent color, and is trimmed with two rows of rich gold lace. The whole is mounted on a staff of silver nine feet feet long. This gorgeous trophy was the principal personal property of Alum- ma, a West African chief, and was cap- tured by British bluejackets in the au- tumn of last year at Brohomie, the stronghold of Nana, Alumma’s son. It reached the Admiralty a few days ago, having been sent home for preservation as a memento of the capture of the slave- raider's headquarters.—London Tele- graph.

At one of the experimental agricul- tural colleges in Germany the remark- able yield of 42 tons of potatoes per acre has been obtained by treating the seed tubers with sulphate of ammonia. The potatoes were steeped for 24 hours in a solution of six pounds of saltpetre, six pounds of sulphate of. ammonia and 25 gallons of water, and afterwards allow- ed to stand and drain for a day, in order that their buds might swell before plant- ing them.—San Francisco Examiner.

The Parrot’s Facetious View,

The family of a professional man, li- ing on the East Side, is parrot of such precocity, wit and enter prise, that there often is some douit » to whether the family owns the parroi or the parrot owns the family. O: Christmas Day all the members of tl: household where this bird holds forth, with some relatives and gnests, partook of a late breakfast and afterwards went into the parlors, where gifts were dis tributed, with the usual merriment and chatter, This started the parrot, anc ell day long it made more noise than « sewing society. This was amusing xt first, but became monotonous as the hours passed, and at last after vain efforts to quiet the bird by expostula- tion, its master. took it from the caye and cuffed its head severely. ‘This had often proved sufficient as a means of discipline, but tne master of the honse fied in terror when the parrot, cockins his head on one side, exclaimed in falsetto: ‘*Thank you so much; thet is exactly what I needed.” The bird evi dently had stored up the expressions o! the morning,—Rochester Democrat and Chronicle.

Wisdom of the Wolf.

The extraordinary sagacity of wolves has been powerfully instanced in a re- cent event on the upper Wa!dron Ridge A colt died and Mr. Warnock took te. strychnine tablets and inserted theu. carefully in various parts of the body. He did not go near that vicinity for z couple of days, and when he dil he weuit expecting to see some results from the bait. There was, however, no sign of a wolf, living or dead, in sigat; he huntec around within a radius of a mile or two. but found nothing, and finally he went over and examined what remained of the dead colt. There was not much: the skin appeared to have been neatly and completely flayed from the body; nearly every particle of flesh was gone. as were also the rib bones and anything smaller; the fore and hind legs had been wrench- ed off from the knee joint down and carricd off some distance, where every- thing mashable on them had been pro- perly mashed. ‘The skin was almost in tact, and, spreading it out, hair side down, Mr, Warnock casually examined it, when he noticed with some surprise a small buick of flesh that had boen left untonched and which was adveriag te the bide, and inclosed in which wus the strychuine tablet. A closer exa:ina- tion revealed the fact that every sinzle one of the ten strychnine pellets tuat had een inserted had been left si. ilar- ly. Every shred of flesh had been caten all around them and not a single one touchel. No wonde- it is a dificult matier to catch wolves when tlecy zre endowed with a cunning lixe this. ‘he explanation is that on this occasion My. Warnock had picked up the pellets be fore inserting them into the bait with his fingers, instead of, as was his ysual custom, with a pair of forceps, But the fact illustrates tne kind 07 foes tie ranchers have to deal with.—McLeod Gazette
